Don’t forget the Vikings! They would loot the churchs and Irish monastaries too.
And the Crusaders! The Catholic Crusaders looted Contantinopole in the 4th Crusade, and had previously pirated through the Red Sea.
back to your history book...the Crusaders were attempting to reclaim territory siezed by moslem hoardes....you'd better thank themfor the progress that they did make.
Oh, please. The Protestants destroyed these villages precisely because they were Catholic. They did the same thing in Spanish Florida, where they destroyed the Franciscan missions, killed Indians and priests, and sold took 11,000 Indians into slavery on the British sugar plantations in the British West Indies.
You’ve got to deal with the Protestant hatred of Catholics and the horrors inflicted by Protestants before you can move on.
